I Fell In Love With My Bestfriend (On Going)

Chapter 7

Five days, Is a hell for us. They also thrown an egg on my face. And some are throwing a stone to me kaya may mga sugat ako. Pati sila Veina at Sheina ay nadamay, tatlo kaming binubully sa school and it's all my fault from the beginning. They also bash Sheina because of Carl, they said 'She's a stalker of Carl' and Veina? They are bullying her because she has a friend like me and Sheina. She should avoid us because she came from a rich family. Pero walang pake si Veina doon at tinutulungan pa niya kami. She never left us.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. You can just leave me. So that they won't—

"Don't ever say that, I am not afraid of them. Because of you guys, I am always happy." Putol ni Veina. Saka hinawakan kami sa kamay. We hugged.

"I won't let them hurt you again. I'll do everything I can." Dagdag pa niya. Napaiyak nalamang kami ni Sheina, kasi hindi niya kami iniwan. I really love them.

For the last five days. I haven't seen Zake. He must be busy, because he's trying to bring down the article against us.

I looked around and see the familiar face of someone, but he just avoid my gaze. I understand him. Also Tita Spring has been continuously calling me, I just told her that I would visit her. Alam ko kasi wala si Vince mamayang gabi kaya mamaya ako pupunta. I know he wouldn't like it if he sees me again. I looked at my pale skin, halata ang mga sugat at maliit na pasa saakin.

Another two days had passed and everything is back again. Nang pumasok kami kanina wala ng nambabato o mga matang mapanghusga na nakatingin sa aamin. It's like nothing happened.

"How are you? Is it still painful? Let's go to the hospital—" I didn't let Zake finished his sentence. Ang OA niya nanaman. Kanina pa kami mag kakasama sila Sheina naman ay bumilu ng makakain. Habang kami nag aantay sa bench na may lamesa gaya ng dati.

"Stop. I'm fine, how many times do I have to tell you?"

"I'm sorry I wasn't able to protect you guys, from them. And my Mom slapped you. Napuno na ng sugat ang katawan mo because of my recklessness." Malungkot na sabi niya. I can't blame him kasi wala namang mali sa ginawa namin. Nagulat din ako sa yakap niya pero walang malisya yun. Ginagawa din naman ng mag kakaibigan yun, at yun ang bagay na hindi nila maintindihan.

"Can you not blame yourself? You've been a very much help to us. Kung hindi dahil sayo ay hindi mawawala ang mga articles na pinublish ng mga reporters at mga ibang post sa social media."

"Actually, I only did the article. Pero yung ibang social media? I didn't do it. Mom's still mad kaya nahirapan akong ipadelete ang mga nasa Facebook. I just talked to the reporters." He said in confusion. Kung hindi siya sino? Pero thankful padin ako kung sino man siya. I hope I can thank him/her.

After they back. We ate and talk about things, specially our graduation. Malapit na ilang linggo nalang. Wala naman akong pamilya na makakasama kaya after ng graduation pupunta ako sa puntod nila Mommy at Daddy. I want to show them my certificate. Only then I'll be proud of myself.

Nasa bahay na ako at inaayos ko ang sarili ko dahil pupunta ako kila tita spring. Sabi kasi ni Yesha na wala si Vince mamaya. Kaya naisip ko na dalawin siya since nangako ako. I arrange my things ng may biglang nalaglag na couple bracelets. I remember the old man said that I should give this to someone I love. I plan to give this to Vince but I know it's not the right time. It has also a note it says 'love is a small word but has a big meaning' Give this to someone important to you and this symbolizes that my love for you won't fade away'
